Picture of a Wild Cat!:
Even in low light conditions the frightening appearance of a wild
cat suggests it would be unwise to be this close to it. Though
similar in shape and size to a domestic cat, this is an untamed
creature that has never seen a hearthrug. More of a feline wolf
than a moggie, the Scottish wild cat is the kind of creature
which some people might prefer to avoid believing in. But in the
Highlands there is plenty of open space for these creatures to
run free. If by some extraordinary chance you happened to be so
close to such a thing, the proximity would be of a very short
duration, as the animal would not want to be close to you.

I've got a really bad feeling
about this, and I am afeared that folk are going to write in and
say "Scottish wild cats aren't like that at all" or
"They don't look like that" or "there's no such
thing" or "they are entirely tame things and you're
wrong" or some such stuff. Well, if you know better than I
do, please keep it polite.

The whole thing is so scary that
it's best considered with a wee dram of some good Scotch!
